Why can elections be seen like a social contract between government and citizens?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because citizens give support and government accepts accountability

Answer: A. A social contract means an understanding in which people accept a government’s authority while the government is expected to work for the people and remain answerable to them. Elections express this relationship in a practical way. Citizens vote and give a party or candidate a mandate to govern for a limited period. The elected government must then explain its decisions, respond to public needs, and face another election in which citizens can continue or withdraw their support. A is correct because it joins popular consent with government accountability. B is wrong because citizens do not lose their political role after voting; they can question, discuss, organise, and vote again. C is wrong because democratic government is connected to citizens, not separated from them. D is wrong because democracy does not make political power hereditary. Memory cue: election contract = public consent plus government accountability.
